It'll be interesting to see how the young guys in Philly co-exist with him.

Four firsts would have to be 19/21/23/25 right? Cause they can’t trade all those first in consecutive years? Or maybe that incorrect lol. 

Butnif it’s correct I’d do that deal, cause by then Houston could easily be lottery team.

You are correct. Can’t trade consecutive first rounders. 

By ‘23, you gotta think Houston will be in rebuild mode eventually. 

Those two players they got from philly will never do anything of extreme value to that franchise.

Saw this earlier and lol'd. We're 12 games into the season and already wondering if they need 'Melo around.

While Carmelo Anthony is absent with an illness tonight against the Spurs, the Rockets and Anthony are discussing his role and how they might still be able to proceed together for the rest of the season, league sources tell ESPN. Talks are fluid.

The Rockets have denied they are waiving Carmelo Anthony, but two sources close to the situation say Anthony has been informed that his brief time with the team will soon be ending. Anthony has been listed as "out" for Houston's game tonight against Indiana due to illness

I'd like to see him keep bumping around the league and failing miserably.

He's making a buttload of money, though. So I'm sure he'd like that too

If houston waives him, he'll get the rest of his contract with them. And THEN another contract with whoever signs him after.

Can't they just keep him, but not play him?  Make him want to opt out?

So is Draymond gonna be out of GS? 

Side note: of course this all happens the year after Lebron leaves Cleveland. Where was this two years ago so we could have had an actual shot of another championship?!

I don't think it's going to be a big deal. Draymond is a tool but I'm sure he knows his role. 

On an unrelated note, anyone see this shit?

KD, IMO, isn’t re-signing with GS anyway. This just makes it even more likely he leaves.

It’s crazy how good Wiggins could be, but he just doesn’t use his athleticism the way he should. That dunk just now, Jesus Christ..

Mike Breen just gave the most ridiculous stat about Kawhi Leonard. He has more steals than personal fouls in his career.
